13 musical journeys, one irrepressible harpist, an intimate and electrifying evening of theatrical storytelling, humor, songs and electric harp with 2006 Grammy Nominee and star of her own TV Special on PBS, Deborah Henson-Conant.
"Hip Harp in Concert!" is a one night only performance that blurs the line between musical and theatrical event. Henson-Conant weaves personal and allegorical stories into a thread of songs that she accompanies with her custom-built, strap-on electric harp. With multi-colored braids flying and cowboy boots tapping, she creates worlds from music - taking the audience from their seats and on a journey through her imagination.
The Wall Street Journal raves that Deborah Henson-Conant is "a phenomenal harpist-performer" and the New York Times calls her "a combination of Leonard Bernstein, Steven Tyler and Xena the Warrior Princess." This is a show that should not be missed!
